Cacao Ceremony & Dreamcatcher Workshop
Saturday, July 13, 2019
03:00 PM - 08:00 PM
Ivy, VA
Dreamcatcher Workshop
The afternoon will begin with a Dreamcatcher Workshop led by Walker Generelly, of In Between Dreams. During the Dreamcatcher Workshop, you will weave a beautiful sacred object of your own creation! Utilizing traditional techniques as well as contemporary adaptations, Walker will guide you on an informative hands-on journey in the art and lore of dreamcatchers. You will create your own one-of-a-kind piece of art infused with meaning and intention centered around the cacao ceremony.
Leading into the workshop, we will take a few minutes to forage the land and source earth objects to include in our dreamcatchers. These will stand as reminders of the sacred experience we will share with each other. All supplies will be included including hoops, textiles, crystals, and feathers for decoration. We also welcome you to bring personal objects and decorations to incorporate into your dreamcatcher to make it more personal and meaningful.
Cacao Ceremony
After the Dreamcatcher Workshop, Waverly Davis, of Moon and Mother Vine, will lead a Cacao Ceremony. Women throughout history have gathered in sacred circle to share together, to celebrate together, to cry together, essentially, to be, together. All of you is welcome in our circle; your joys, your pains, and everything in between.

Cacao is a powerful, heart-opening plant medicine that has been used ceremonially for thousands of years. Besides being one of the world’s richest superfoods, full of antioxidants, it is known spiritually for its active ingredient, Theobromine, a Latin word that translates to “Food of the Gods.” Cacao is a non-psychoactive plant ally that helps us deepen our connection with our heart chakra, creating more ease and harmony in our lives.
